Rock Island Armory Rock Standard FS 1911 | .45 ACP | 5in | 51447

The Rock Island Armory Rock Standard FS 1911 is a full-size, traditional 70-series 1911 built on steel components and finished in a two-tone combination of a blasted nickel frame with a parkerized slide. It is chambered in .45 ACP and uses a 5-inch button-rifled barrel with a full-length guide rod for consistent lockup. For a sighting solution under $1,000 that pairs well with a full-size 1911, a compact 1x red dot such as the Holosun 507K provides a low-profile footprint and fast sight acquisition suited to target work and competition.

This pistol is well-suited for precision range sessions and competition shooting where a full-size grip and sight radius assist accuracy; it also fits collectors and 1911 enthusiasts seeking a traditionally styled, value-oriented metal-frame 1911. It features a snag-free profile and controls familiar to experienced 1911 users.
